What a game by Raiders cornerback David Amerson. The former second round defensive back who was left for dead in Washington after week two of the season was swatting down balls in this game at a rate that would make Dikembe Mutombo jealous.
Amerson was finally given the start ahead of DJ Hayden following a game in Detroit in which he held Calvin Johnson in check in his coverage, adding four passes defended in that game.
In this game he had an interception and six passes defended which is a Raiders single-game record.
